About the Journal

Focus and Scope

New possibilities for data generation and analysis, visualization and text quality as well as questions of source criticism with regard to digital editions or in digital format generate new methods of historical analysis. The internationality of historical research in the digital age, which is less tied to locality, gives rise to new forms of professional communication; and classical scholars are increasingly reliant on open-access, high-quality literature or source materials and network-based opportunities for joint research and publication.

Against this background, DIGITAL CLASSICS ONLINE address scholars and young scientists working with methods from the digital humanities and dealing with discourses that arise, inter alia, from working with large amounts of data. We are looking for contributions from all areas that address the field of digital humanities, computational humanities and informatics and apply them to questions and problems of classical studies, particularly Ancient History, Classical Philology and Classical Archaeology and related disciplines (such as data formats, description standards, web technologies, databases, programming languages, and visualizations in classical studies). Related questions concerning virtual research environments, new training methods and the use of digital elements in Classical Studies teaching are also welcome.
